Mermoz and Aéropostale VR escape game in Saint-Laurent-de-la-Salanque

PLAYI ·

The Saint-Laurent youth centre, the local Junior Association and PLAYI co-created an immersive experience exploring Mermoz and Aéropostale.

This project began with a collaboration between the Saint-Laurent-de-la-Salanque youth centre, the local Junior Association and the PLAYI team.

Together, we designed a virtual and augmented reality escape game about Mermoz and the Aéropostale adventure, telling a chapter of Catalan and French history in a different way.

The aim was to bring history to life for young people who had never experienced an immersive activity, using an engaging educational format.

“Merci au Point Jeunes St Laurent, à la Junior Association et à la société Playi pour cette expérience inédite !”

The project illustrates a co-design approach: start with a place and its local history, then build an immersive activity with the partners involved.
